Just for a little perspective on how fast the cancer of communism can spread in a civil war...some brief lowlights below with approximate dates. When the host develops communism it metastases rapidly. Funny, China went through a phase of erasing history.

1921-1949

Chinese Communist party formed 1921 - eventually communists take over all of mainland China by 1949

1945-1949 civil war - Commies seize power and control mainland China

1966-1976 Cultural Revolution - purge - millions killed, imprisoned, tortured or otherwise humiliated, loss of all private property.

The Cultural Revolution attacked the “4 Olds”
old customs,
old culture,
old habits,
old ideas.

The youthful revolutionaries swept the mainland destroying books, shrines, monuments and lives.

America is not magically immune - the old guys seem to understand this.
